cookie-doughThe main Easter treat is unsurpassed.
How to make a kulik Dough for cakes is very tender, so you need to prepare it in a special way. First, it occurs in several approaches, with the gradual addition of butter, eggs, sugar. Secondly, the dough needs to be literally nursed and cherished so that it fits properly. There is an odd number of recipes for cakes, but there is an ingredient without which none can succeed - prayer. The sisters believe that this is the main secret.
With pure thoughts and prayer on our lips, we begin to prepare the Easter cake. Ingredients are designed for about 10-15 culiches.
The ingredients
- 2kg flour
- 1 l milk
- 1.5 packs of pressed yeast
- 1.5 kg of sugar
- 500g butter
- 250g margarine
- 250g sour cream
- 125g sunflower oil
- 20-30 eggs
- 5 bags of vanillin
- ginger, nutmeg at will
Preparation
- First we have to prepare the opar. To do this, warm the milk without boiling. Add 500 grams of sugar, stir. Then chop the yeast in there, stir and wait for them to play. It usually takes about half an hour.
- Prepare the remaining ingredients for the test. Cut the butter in pieces, put it in a pan and put it on the fire so that it completely melts.
- Separate the proteins from the yolks. Take both separately. Squirrels should turn into thick foam.
- Now in a large form mix all the ingredients: sift the flour, add the remaining sugar, vanillin and nutmeg. Stir it all together. Then add the liquid ingredients: butter and sunflower oil, sour cream, whipped yolks and last-minute whipped proteins. Stir all the ingredients and mix the dough. It takes about an hour to mix the dough on the cake.
- How do you know if the dough is ready? It should not stick to the hands, but let it be without excess density, in consistency like soft plasticine. When you finish kneading, wrap the dough and leave it in a warm place to rise.
- While the dough rises, prepare the baking molds. Each of them should be well lubricated with sunflower or ghee oil. That way the dough won't stick to the walls.
- You can also add some goodies to the test. Here you need to focus on your taste. Someone likes a classic cake without anything, and someone prefers when there are many different additives inside. The sisters recommend adding lemon peel, which will give the cakes a special taste and aroma. You can also add finely sliced nuts, candies, pieces of chocolate or spices. A matter of taste.
- After the dough has come (about an hour and a half), add prepared additives to it. Stir well so that everything is evenly distributed on the test. Immediately after that, spread the dough into shapes. Form a small smooth ball of dough and lower into the shape. Then cover the forms with a clean towel and leave for 40 minutes to make the dough fit again.
- Forms with the test should be kept warm. You need to make sure that there are no drafts and unnecessary noise, because the dough may fall. After the dough fits, send the forms to the oven or oven and bake for about 40 minutes at a temperature of 180 degrees.
When the cakes are ready, get them out of the molds still hot. The sisters lay out the pastries on the table and cover with a clean towel. Kulichi should cool down. And then the top of the cakes will need to be covered with sweet sugar glaze and sprinkled with a multicolored sprinkle. Like this.
kali It turned out, and also fragrant, rosy and delicious. Such cakes will please you and your family for at least a week, will not stale!
